Back When My Husband Was Poor Chapter 36
byChapter 37 Chapter 36 I haven’t eaten in eight hundred years
Jiang Tingnan bought the crayfish back.
As soon as he opened the door, Ruan Yan simply rushed over to greet him.It had been a long time since his wife had greeted him so warmly, and Jiang Tingnan was a little flattered.
The gloomy mood just now was gone. He curled his lips and was about to pick up his wife, but Ruan Yan turned a corner, took the crayfish out of his hand, and turned back to shake it at Xiao Hei.
“Xiao Hei, dad bought us crayfish.”
Jiang Tingnan was left where he was, “…”
Good, gloomier.
Ruan Yan didn’t want to sit on the sofa. He had his own “cat nest”, a super soft cushion, but it made a small pit when he sat on it. Ruan Yan even said that it was Xiao Hei who sat on it in the past two days. Xiao Hei didn’t understand and thought his little dad was praising him, so he meowed.
He pulled out the mat and sat on it. Xiao Hei quickly went up and squatted next to him.
Ruan Yan happily opened the bag, “Xiao Hei, you can’t eat this because it’s too spicy. It will hurt your butt. Let your little dad bear all the pain… Jiang Tingnan! Why is there only half a box!!”
Jiang Tingnan took off his coat and said coldly, “I’m afraid your butt will hurt.”
He skillfully sat across from Ruan Yan and consciously began to put on disposable gloves to peel the shrimp.
Jiang Tingnan peeled one off, and Ruan Yan stretched his neck to eat one.While eating, he complained, “Who can eat with so little, Xiaoxi, I’d rather have a pain in my butt.”
Jiang Tingnan said coldly, “It’s a deal, I’ll help you tonight.”
“No, no, no, I won’t bother you because you are old.”
Jiang Tingnan narrowed his eyes and triggered the keyword, “I am old.”
In fact, to be honest, the age difference between the two of them is only two years. It’s just that Jiang Tingnan attends more formal occasions, always wears formal clothes, and looks more mature, so he looks much older than Ruan Yan.
Ruan Yan muttered, “Let’s use an analogy.”
A small half box of crayfish was only enough for Ruan Yan to taste it. He licked his mouth and said, “Honey, can I eat it tomorrow too?”
Jiang Tingnan answered cruelly, “No, just once every half month.”
Ruan Yan let out a painful “ouch”, and Xiao Hei didn’t know why, so he also meowed.
Jiang Tingnan picked him up and went to wash up.
Ruan Yan hung on Jiang Tingnan’s body with his hands and feet, and kissed Jiang Tingnan on the face. His face was covered with oil marks. Jiang Tingnan pretended to “tsk” in disgust, but in fact he didn’t even hide.
“Don’t be unhappy, you’re just a dad, and I don’t have one either.”
Jiang Tingnan seemed to be amused by him and looked down at him, “How do you know why I am unhappy?”
“Please, you are my husband.”
Jiang Tingnan said nothing, but felt his heart swelled.
He once thought that he was inherently unworthy of being loved by others. Until he married Ruan Yan, he thought it was not the case. He still had his Yan Yan, who loved him very much.
But this time Jiang Xiao’s incident also reminded Jiang Tingnan that just because he was reborn, it didn’t mean that everything would happen step by step like in his previous life. Just like the butterfly effect, there would always be a chain reaction. Jiang Tingnan didn’t know what else would happen that he didn’t expect. All he could do was protect his words.
…
For Ruan Yan, Jiang Xiao’s incident was like a passing cloud that quickly dissipated. The scratch on his arm healed, and he quickly resumed his days of eating, drinking and having fun.
He often feeds some stray cats, and without exception, all the stray cats he feeds turn out to be eggs sent to the pet hospital by Ruan Yan. The cat world gradually calls him the egg king.
When summer vacation was about to come, Han Qiu brought up the subject of inviting Ruan Yan to his grandma’s house again. Han Qiu had not had many friends since he was a child, so he cherished his friendship with Ruan Yan, but he had nothing to offer, so he could only invite Ruan Yan to play.
It’s just that he mentioned this matter to Ruan Yan during the middle of class. There happened to be several classmates around. One of them was famous for joining in the fun. Hearing this, he immediately said, “Han Qiu, we are all classmates, why don’t you invite us to play.”
Han Qiu was stunned for a moment, “Um, do you want to go? There’s nothing good about my place, it’s just a small mountain village…”
“Farmhouse entertainment is popular now.” Li Nan smiled, “It just so happens that we don’t have anywhere to go during the summer vacation.”
Han Qiu has a soft personality and doesn’t know how to reject others. He bit his lip when he heard this and said, “Okay, let’s all come together. If you don’t dislike it…”
Ruan Yan tugged at him and said angrily, “How do you calculate the expenses? You all need money for food and accommodation when you go there.”
Li Nan’s eyes widened, “You still want money? We are all classmates.”
Ruan Yan sneered, “Then let’s go to your house and eat and drink for free.” The last four words were pronounced with a heavy accent and were extremely ironic.
Li Nan took a deep breath. His usual personality was to take advantage of others, but now he was being treated so humiliatingly, but the person in front of him was Ruan Yan, and he couldn’t afford to offend him.
“Okay, pay.” Li Nan forced a smile, “One thousand is enough for each person.”
Han Qiu quickly said, “It’s too much…”
“Okay, let’s hand over these first. If you don’t have enough, we’ll wait.” Ruan Yan interrupted Han Qiu, “Qiuqiu, take out the payment code.”
“…”
After returning home, Ruan Yan was still very angry when talking about this matter to Jiang Tingnan, “Qiuqiu is too talkative and agreed directly, otherwise I would definitely scold them.”
Jiang Tingnan was not interested in other people’s affairs, but Ruan Yan said he wanted to go out to play, so Jiang Tingnan deliberately made time.
He fed a cherry into Ruan Yan’s mouth, then put his hand aside and waited for Ruan Yan to spit it out.
Jiang Tingnan said calmly, “Let’s play our own game. I’ll go with you. You don’t care what others do.”
He hates Ruan Yan paying too much attention to others.
Ruan Yan smiled and hugged Jiang Tingnan’s neck again, “Well, husband, how are we going to get there?”
“I’ll make arrangements.”
Han Qiu’s hometown is not close to here.After the final exam, Han Qiu went back first, and it took a few days for Ruan Yan and Jiang Tingnan to set off.
First, he took a flight to City G and then had to transfer to a train. Ruan Yan couldn’t bear it when he got off the train. He felt dizzy after all the hard work.
Judging from the distance, they still had to transfer to a bus, but Ruan Yan was very motion sick, and he even thought that he would probably vomit in the car. He had already thought about it, otherwise he would stay one night in the town first.
Jiang Tingnan got out of the car with Ruan Yan in his arms. Ruan Yan was feeling uncomfortable at this time. He didn’t care what others thought, he was hanging on Jiang Tingnan like an octopus.
Jiang Tingnan held him with one hand and carried his luggage with the other as he walked out, his expression not very good.Ruan Yan felt a little uncomfortable, and he wished it would fall on him.
Fortunately, after leaving the station, he soon saw a man holding a sign. He saw Jiang Tingnan and walked over quickly, “You must be Mr. Jiang.”
Ruan Yan raised his head when he heard the voice, “Huh? Jiang Tingnan, you are so popular. Everyone here knows you.”
Jiang Tingnan was a little helpless, “Aren’t you dizzy? Stop talking and sleep on me for a while.”
It was really difficult for Ruan Yan to talk less.
His eyes were still on the person in front of him.
Jiang Tingnan had no choice but to explain, “I was afraid that you would be uncomfortable, so I asked someone to book a car in advance to avoid taking the bus.”
Ruan Yan was even more curious, what kind of car should be ordered in advance.
When he followed the man to the opposite side of the station, Ruan Yan was confused.
Jiang Tingnan actually ordered a RV.
It’s not particularly big, but it still looks a bit out of place in this small town, and there are several children taking pictures nearby.
Ruan Yan murmured, “That’s too exaggerated, Jiang Tingnan.”
Jiang Tingnan didn’t care about that. He hugged Ruan Yan and got into the car. The back of the car was very spacious and the bed was clean. Ruan Yan climbed in and rolled around comfortably.
Jiang Tingnan waved to him, “Lie next to me. You sleep on your bed, and I will help you lay down on your body.”
Feeling the gentle massage on his waist, Ruan Yan sighed comfortably, “How long can we ride in this car? When there is a mountain road, we won’t be able to sit on it.”
“Go to sleep and stop worrying.”
Ruan Yan thought about it. With Jiang Tingnan by his side, when would he need to worry about this?
He simply closed his eyes and fell asleep.
On the train before, it was so swaying, so noisy, and the bed was so hard that he didn’t fall asleep at all. Now lying on the soft big bed with Jiang Tingnan next to him, Ruan Yan quickly fell asleep in a relaxed state.
The car stopped once midway, probably to change cars, but Ruan Yan was so fast asleep that he didn’t feel anything at all. He just slept in Jiang Tingnan’s arms without raising his head.
The driver in front couldn’t help but look behind him.
This big boss from City S spent a lot of money and changed three or four cars along the way, just to make his lover more comfortable. But when his little lover slept all the way, Mr. Jiang hugged her all the way. It was really shocking.
Finally, when Ruan Yan was woken up by a jolt, he had already arrived in the mountain village.
It rained a few days ago and the road ahead was really impassable. As soon as Ruan Yan opened his eyes in a daze, he was hugged down by Jiang Tingnan.
Along the way, he seemed to have grown up on Jiang Tingnan.
“What’s wrong?”
Ruan Yan yawned.
Jiang Tingnan whispered, “It’s okay. We have to walk the last part of the way. I’m holding you. The road is muddy, so don’t get your shoes wet.”
Knowing that Ruan Yan loves to be clean and is a bit pretentious, Jiang Tingnan said this deliberately.
Sure enough, Ruan Yan hugged Jiang Tingnan’s neck tightly in the next second, “Then you have to hold me tight and don’t throw me down.”
Jiang Tingnan smiled dullly, “Don’t worry.”
The temporary driver also came down, carrying large and small packages.
Seeing Ruan Yan looking over, Jiang Tingnan said, “You always have to bring some gifts to your door. Do you really have to go empty-handed?”
Ruan Yan was a little embarrassed, “How come you have thought of everything, Jiang Tingnan.”
Ruan Yan only wanted to avoid letting Han Qiu suffer, so he transferred money to Han Qiu privately, but he didn’t expect to bring something to his grandma.
Jiang Tingnan bumped him up and said, “Be good, I’ll just think about it.”
The rest of the way is not very far, it takes about ten minutes to arrive.
Han Qiu knew the approximate time they would arrive, so he came out to pick them up in advance. When he saw them, he waved happily.
Ruan Yan also jumped off Jiang Tingnan, “Qiuqiu!”
The driver delivered the items and left.
Han Qiu’s grandma was a strong little old lady. She looked at the things in the yard and kept saying, “Here you come. They are all Xiaoqiu’s classmates. What are you giving me? Come here and feel like you are at home.”
Ruan Yan’s grandma passed away a long time ago. He has no grandma, so he is particularly kind to see such a little old lady.
“Thank you, grandma.” Ruan Yan smiled, “Xiaoqiu and I are roommates. We have a good relationship. This is Jiang Tingnan, my boyfriend.”
Jiang Tingnan said politely, “Hello, grandma.”
Grandma Han was obviously shocked by the word “boyfriend”, but she didn’t say anything and nodded quickly, “Quick, sit in the room.”
The self-built houses in the small mountain village didn’t have much else but a lot of rooms. Just as Li Nan and the others hadn’t arrived yet, Ruan Yan got priority in choosing a room. He was not polite at all and chose the one with the biggest bed.
It was already dusk by this time.
Jiang Tingnan was packing his suitcase in the room, and Ruan Yan ran out to find Han Qiu.
Because it was close to the mountain, the air was particularly good. Ruan Yan took a deep breath and felt that all the fatigue from the journey had been swept away.
Grandma was cooking dinner for the guests in the kitchen. Han Qiu moved a small stool in the yard and sat picking vegetables. Ruan Yan also joined him.
Han Qiu taught him how to do it, “By the way, you guys are out, where is Xiao Hei.”
“Sent to Jiang Tingnan’s friend.”
In fact, it’s Li Han’s place.
Li Han and Xiao Hei have a purely confrontational relationship. They fight every time they meet. Xiao Hei usually takes the lead in attacking, going up and punching Bang Bang twice.
I don’t know if Xiao Hei can become a boxer during this foster care.
Ruan Yan is looking forward to it.
“You must have had a hard time along the way.” Han Qiu smiled, “My grandma stewed the chicken and added it with our local wild vegetables. It is very fragrant.”
“Okay, okay.”
Jiang Tingnan finished packing his things and went out to see Ruan Yan working there. He reflexively wanted to do it for him. Halfway through, he saw Han Qiu next to him and silently retreated, staring at the door like a gloomy boss.
The sunset in the evening cast a golden light on the courtyard. Ruan Yan squinted his eyes slightly and felt very comfortable. “I don’t know how comfortable it would be if I lived here every day.”
Han Qiu didn’t refute him, just smiled with his eyes bent.
Soon, the aroma wafted down the kitchen.
It’s a different feeling than eating in a restaurant.
In such a small courtyard, a table is set up, and the smoke is curling up, just like what is described in the Chinese text, and it seems to feel comfortable even in the bones.
Several people helped grandma bring out the food
The pot in the middle is stewed chicken with wild vegetables, next to it are several side dishes, and each person has a bowl of white rice. Grandma is afraid that there will not be enough food for two people, so she keeps saying, “Eat, eat more, there is not enough left in the pot.”
Ruan Yan quickly said, “That’s enough, that’s enough, grandma, please sit down and eat together.”
One bowl of rice is as much as Ruan Yan eats in a day.
Jiang Tingnan knew that his wife had an appetite like a kitten, so he was afraid that he would not be able to wipe her face, so he whispered, “If you can’t eat anymore, put it in my bowl.”
But Ruan Yan thought about his grandma working on a table of food in the kitchen. He was embarrassed not to finish it all, and his chopsticks were about to throw out afterimages. Jiang Tingnan looked sideways and thought about starting to learn cooking skills from his grandma tomorrow.
The chicken raised in the mountains tastes good and the meat is firm. It is paired with refreshing wild vegetables. Pour the soup on the rice, mix it with the chicken and vegetables, and eat a big spoonful. It is so satisfying.
But no matter how satisfied he was, after eating a whole bowl of rice, Ruan Yan still couldn’t bear it.
When I finally stood up, I felt like there was a lump in my throat.
He rubbed his belly and walked all over the yard, unable to sit down.
Jiang Tingnan helped clear the table and wash the dishes. When he came out, he saw Ruan Yan still walking around. He walked over helplessly, put his arm around Ruan Yan’s waist, and helped him rub his stomach. “You are such an adult, and you don’t know how much you eat? I think you have a stomachache at night. What should I do?”
Ruan Yan pursed his lips, “It’s really delicious.”
Jiang Tingnan ran out of ideas and went to his grandma to get some apples and hawthorns to boil water for Ruan Yan.
It gets dark early in the mountain village, and there are not many night activities. Grandma is getting older, so she goes to bed early.
Han Qiu asked Ruan Yan if he wanted to see the moon.
Ruan Yan has been sleeping for a day and is not sleepy now. Hearing this, he nodded quickly and said, “If you want to see it, where should you go?”
Han Qiu pointed the direction to Ruan Yan and walked forward along the path, bypassing the hillside.
Ruan Yan blinked, “Qiuqiu, aren’t you going?”
Han Qiu smiled, “You and your husband go, I won’t be a light bulb.”
He handed Ruan Yan a flashlight, “It’s dark on the road, be careful.”
Ruan Yan smiled with his eyes bent, “Don’t worry.”
The small mountain village was very quiet at night. You could hear the chirping of birds and the chirping of insects. Ruan Yan was in a good mood and jumped up and down when he walked. Jiang Tingnan was frightened when he saw it. He was afraid that he would have a stomachache again soon, so he had to protect him. The path was not easy to walk after all, and he was afraid that Ruan Yan would fall.
Finally, I finally climbed up the hillside without any danger.
Ruan Yan has never seen the moon so close.
He was shocked.
The angle of this hillside was strange, as if the moon was shining brightly in front of him.
Jiang Tingnan took off his coat and threw himself under Ruan Yan so that he could lie down on the hillside.
Ruan Yan stretched out comfortably and looked at the moon intently, “So beautiful, Jiang Tingnan.”
Jiang Tingnan lowered his eyes and looked at Ruan Yan, “Yeah, beautiful.”
“Do you still remember the moon we watched in Bern, Switzerland? We stayed in a hotel at the foot of the mountain. The boss had a very cute Akita dog.”
Jiang Tingnan looked gentle, “Of course I remember.”
All the memories related to Ruan Yan have long been deeply engraved in his heart.
After getting married, although Jiang Tingnan was still very busy with work, he would deliberately take time to travel with Ruan Yan.
In the summer, they went to Tanzania to watch the Great Migration of Animals. Ruan Yan fell in love with a little lion and took many photos of him.If it hadn’t been for a car accident later, they would have really raised a beautiful little lion.
In autumn, they went to Tuscany to see the golden waves of wheat. When the sun shone down, it was like a blazing flame, and Jiang Tingnan and Ruan Yan themselves were about to be melted.I remember that day, Jiang Tingnan carried Ruan Yan on his back and let Ruan Yan ride on his neck to take pictures. Ruan Yan opened his arms and cheered, calling Jiang Tingnan’s name loudly.
In the winter, they went to Hokkaido to soak in hot springs. Ruan Yan put a towel on his head and asked Jiang Tingnan to take pictures of him. However, Jiang Tingnan thought he was deliberately seducing her, so he held Ruan Yan down and fucked her hard all night.
In the spring, they went to the Colosseum. Ruan Yan asked Jiang Tingnan if he could beat a lion.Jiang Tingnan said no, but if a lion really pounced, he would stand in front of Ruan Yan.
Jiang Tingnan recalled at this moment that they had been married for so long, and their days were ordinary and happy, slipping through their fingertips like running water.
When they first got married, Jiang Tingnan never expected Ruan Yan to love him. He just wanted to keep Ruan Yan by his side.
But I don’t know since when, Jiang Tingnan wanted more.
Everyone is like this, their desires and thoughts are constantly expanding.
He began to get used to the way his wife looked soft in his arms, to deliberately waking her up in the morning to coax him, to hearing him call her husband in a sticky voice, to letting Ruan Yan give him a good morning kiss, and to feeling his wife’s wet and soft mouth on his cheek.
Ruan Yan is enjoying the beautiful moon here.
He took a lot of photos and planned to take a photo with Jiang Tingnan later.
Suddenly Jiang Tingnan turned his head and asked him seriously.
“Baby, do you know that your mouth is very soft?”
Ruan Yan, what does “…” mean?
Jiang Tingnan frowned, “You haven’t given me a good morning kiss for a long time. Wife, please give me a kiss.”
Ruan Yan just wanted to give him a slap.
But he was afraid that Jiang Tingnan would be happy, so he had to give up.
He stood up quickly, fearing that Jiang Tingnan would say dirty things again, “It’s getting late, let’s go back.”
Jiang Tingnan stood up and followed him, “Have you got a good morning kiss or a good night kiss?”
Ruan Yan was so entangled by him that he couldn’t help it. He turned around and tugged on Jiang Tingnan’s collar. Jiang Tingnan obediently lowered his head and was kissed gently on the lips by Ruan Yan.
Ruan Yan originally wanted to give him a gentle kiss and then stand up, but how could Jiang Tingnan let the prey in his mouth escape. He put his arms around Ruan Yan’s waist and turned his back, deepening the kiss little by little.
The moonlight fell on the two people, as beautiful as a painting.
Ruan Yan didn’t know what was going on with Jiang Tingnan. In such a beautiful place, why did Jiang Tingnan kiss him so fiercely, as if he hadn’t kissed her in 180 years?
“Well…be gentle…husband…”
Ruan Yan struggled to push him away. The moonlight flickered and his mouth turned red.
“What should I do if I get seen after I’ve kissed you and it’s swollen?”
Jiang Tingnan’s breathing was still a little heavy, so he coaxed Ruan Yan, “No.”
Ruan Yan ignored him and walked back angrily. However, Jiang Tingnan caught up with him before he took two steps and held his hand forcefully.
Fortunately, Han Qiu was already asleep when he returned to the yard. The yard was quiet, and Ruan Yan breathed a sigh of relief as if he was a thief.
He quietly returned to the room. Jiang Tingnan found hot water from somewhere and gave him a basin to soak his feet.
Ruan Yan was shocked, “You even brought a footbath?”
Jiang Tingnan knelt down and pressed his feet, “Foldable basin, you will definitely get pain in your feet if you walk outside too much.”
Ruan Yan regretted it again.
His husband is so nice, why should he kiss her husband?
He promised sincerely, “Honey, I won’t hide from you next time you kiss me.”
Jiang Tingnan laughed, “What’s the difference between this and your promise to start losing weight after eating?”
Ruan Yan, “…” What he said turned out to be so reasonable.
It was too late, so Ruan Yan soaked his feet and washed up before going to bed quickly. He changed places and thought he would recognize the bed. Unexpectedly, he slept very sweetly with Jiang Tingnan in his arms.
A dreamless night.
Until I was woken up by the sound outside the next day.
Ruan Yan was sleeping in a daze, and he was almost bored to death. He pushed himself up and saw that Li Nan and his two other friends were in the yard. They rushed over in disgrace. As soon as they came in, they yelled loudly, complaining that the road was difficult to walk, and they were about to fall apart due to their torment.
Jiang Tingnan woke up early and went to the kitchen to help his grandma cook. He knew that Yan Yan was still sleeping, so he heard the noise and walked out with a cold face.
Li Nan’s voice stopped abruptly when he saw Jiang Tingnan.
As soon as he smiled, Jiang Tingnan said coldly, “Shut up or get out.”
